An overcast June early morning in Port Ellen, the MV Isle of Arran leaving Islay for a crossing to Kennacraig on the mainland with my sister Imke on board (I think she had gone inside by then, so not visible on deck)
A view back from an Islay ferry having just left Port Askaig en route to Kennacraig on the mainland in late June 2025. You can make out Port Askaig on the left as well as the famous Paps of Jura on the right. Sgarbh Breac on Islay also in the distance towards the left, but Rhuvaal lighthouse is too far to make out.
A picture taken by my sister Imke, who had just arrived on this ferry. That’s me watching (and filming) the MV Finlaggan departing from Port Askaig on the Sound of Islay for another crossing to Kennacraig.
